L-1-1 Thank you very much. Shall we pray? Our heavenly Father, we thank You for all Your goodness to us. God, we just feel unworthy; and to look upon this audience today and see this birthday cake laying here... I'm sorry, Father; You forgive me. I just can't talk; but I pray, God, that somehow, somehow, that this stream of Divine love will help everyone. Bless these people who has done this great thing, Father, and I just ask that Your blessings will be with us so great today, until the whole building will be flooded with Your Glory. And--and think of the very time looking at that deaf and dumb people passing by, going to the other side... Oh, I pray, God, somehow, do something in a great way for us today. We ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-1-2 May God's blessings rest upon Buchman. I just pray that God will bless you, my dear friends. That's the prettiest thing I guess... Have you showed it to the public? Have they? Isn't that beautiful? I want to take this time to thank you. There's no way in the world that I could ever repay any of you for your kind blessings. And I notice the presents that was given to me, and then the little gifts in the envelopes, and the cards, and things. Marvelous, it just makes me feel like I want to make an appointment, come back next year for my birthday. Thank you kindly. My, that is wonderful. I looked around and I didn't know what that was. And it sure is pretty, and all your gifts...

L-1-4 There's only one thing I can say, and this is not exactly... Well, it's to say with a prayer: "God bless you." And if I never be able, and--and God never lets me do it in this life, to--to show my appreciation for all these gifts from everyone... Even a little girl had a--a little envelope in there, and--and it was her tithings of about eight cents; I think it was. She sent it to me for a birthday present: her tithings. From that to these great presents here... Oh, God richly repay you, my dear brothers and sisters. I just... I didn't think you really thought that much of me. I really didn't. I do appreciate it.

L-1-5 Today is--is... We've taken it for the heart to heart talk, I believe today. Just instead of preaching, was just to talk and maybe explain some of the things that may seem so mysterious to you in the meetings. (Kindly out of breath, just I wasn't expecting another birthday today.)

L-2-1 And just coming in the door, I met my good friend here, Art Wilson. I guess the Christian Business Men all know him. Your--your home is in Oregon, isn't it, or? Reno, Nevada. Brother Art Wilson, to my right; the next man is Mr. Wood, Mr. Banks Wood, it's my friend and neighbor.
Mr. Wood has been going with me, and many of you people know him by selling books in the meeting. The man has been a very successful contractor.
And one day, while I was in Louisville, Kentucky, having a meeting (himself being a Jehovah Witness; his wife being a Methodist), they had heard of the meeting, so they just drove down to find out how true it was.

L-2-4 On that night there was a girl, was "petrifying": had been lying for several months, not able to even move any joint from her hips down, a young lady of about, oh, a misses about fifteen years old, got right up out of her stretcher after she was brought to the platform, walked all over the place, next day just went ahead, turned back to school in a few days: normally well, yet, and many things the Lord did.
So Mr. Wood, having something to do (a house to finish, or something he was on) he had to hurry and get it done, went to Houston, Texas, to my next meeting. There he was standing in the room that night when the Angel of the Lord appeared and the--the cameras caught the picture of the Angel, and which the picture that you've seen yourself here.
